Greetings All!
IEEE SPS Chapter Hyderabad Section organises A Two Workshop on Easy and Lazy Technical Writing: How to build a Solid Logic
"The purpose of technical writing is to communicate information clearly and concisely to a specific audience." - John R. Trimble
This lecture presents how one should draft a paper with clear logic in a step-by-step manner that is disclosed nowhere else. There is a specific order of preparation to make the drafting most efficient. The highlight is a three-point analysis for which templates are provided to clarify the value, the trick, and a user benefit of the research. These three points naturally lead to a good paper title that can also be used in the abstract. Slides, which are useful for drafting a paper, not to mention a presentation, are then prepared, assuming a 10-15 minute presentation. It helps the author build a solid logic for the paper, which directly benefits the author(s) by making reviewers understand the point of the paper easily and clearly, leading to a higher review score. Some useful tips are scattered in the lecture. This technical writing method received the 2022 Distinguished Educational Practitioners Award from the Institute of Electrical, Information, and Communication Engineers (IEICE).
The course spans two days, each of which has two 90-min sessions. During the break, participants perform homework based on what they learned in the previous lecture session. The results will be reviewed in the following Session 2.
